What is a Tractor Rotavator?

A tractor rotavator is a vital farming machine used alongside a tractor, primarily during seed sowing. Its main function involves removing crop residue and mixing it into the soil. This process aids in residue management, ensuring that crop residues like wheat, maize, and sugarcane are buried in the soil, eventually turning into valuable manure.
